Frequent reference has teen made In
past teachings aud in former Epistles
TO the subject Of home manufactures.
It has been, and We feel il still ought
60 be, theme of ineXhsustible inter-
est to Zion; yet there remains an in
G1ense amount to be done in develop
ing our resources and furnishing facil-
iEies for the employment of the people.
It is pleasing to note the progress
which is being made in some direc-
lions. Our wooden manufactures are
gaining credit for their excellence IN
other communities as well as our OWn.
But we export considerable wool even
after all our factories are well sup
pIied. If this could be manufactured
st home, it would add greatly to the
wealth of our community, not only IN
the profits which would accrue from the
use of machinery, but IL the employ
uent which it would furnish to many
of our citizens. Besides the manufac-
ture Of wooden cloths, there is con-
siderable home made hosiery OF excel
lent quality which is placed on the
market.
EThe range 'of articles which are
manufactured in this Territory is
gradually increasing; and from the
feeling which now prevails we Judge
that many more branches will soon be
added 90 those already in operation.
The manufacture Of soaps of various
GRADES has now become q settled aud
UsFing business. A fine quality of hats
is also made. Boots and shoes and
clothing, glass, white lead, lead

the world began. We testify in the
name of our Lord and Master, Jesus,
that this is the great work of which
the prophets have spoken, that GOD Is
the founder of it, and that it will stand
forever, and accomplish all that has
been predicted concerning it. Zion is
established and will be redeemed. And
II is our continual desire unto God that
His people may be faithful in keeping
His commandments and doing His
will, so that they may be accounted
worthy to stand, and their children
after them, and Inherit the great bless
ings which He has to bestow upon
the faithful. The day is not far dis
tant when our Lord and Savior will be
revealed from the heavens, and we
should live in constant expectation of
thiS great event, and seek, with all the
enc gy and power that we can exercise
and obtain, TO prepare ourselves, our
households. and, as lar as we have in
duence, the inhabitants of the earth,
tor His glorious appearing.

What Am To Dos

The symptoms OF Blllousness ara un-
b ppily but too we'll known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom q
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
out none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection al
any time; if it is not white and turred
II is rough, at all events.
The digestive system Is wholly out of
order and Dlarrhea or Constipation
may be a symptom or the two may
aItern te. There are often Hemorr
holds or even loss of blood. There may
be giddiness and often headache and
aciditY or hatulence and tenderness in
the pit of The -tomsch. To correct all
this if not effect cure try Green 5
august Ftower;, it costs but q trife and
thousands attest its efficacy. -.

In San Luis Valley, Colorado, the
efforts of our people to. open and cul
tivate farms, and to surround tnem
selves with tae neceSsaries aud com-
forts of lie, are meeting witt crafty
ing success. This is tue more note
worthy because OF the fact that the
great bulk of settlers tuere have
moved fIom warm climate al d have
not had experience ia naLtliUg with
the difficulties that have to be met iu

an unLried soil and climate. Like the

in Colorado have always received fair
treatment and encouragement and
kind consideration iron their neigh
bors and the officials of the State.

IN IDAHO.

Ia Idaho, though our people pay
taxes and support the schools, every
one of our faith Is denied the privilege
OF acting in the capacity of a school
trustee or teacher, and no one with
our belief can take the test oath that
has been prescribed by the Legislature.
Fhe situation of the people tuere is
one that excites great 81 mpathy. They
are practically denied the rights Of
American citizens turough the infa-
nous test oath law which was enact d
by the Legislature. IL is very trying
to their patience and bears heavily up
on them. But the day must come
when they will be relieved from the
operation of this Infamous law.

writing nothing has been done in these
cases further than to appear and an

of these cases will be, we, of course

one purpose, namely, to aid the poor Of
our people in their humble efforts TO

been for this charitable purpose, the
object of the generous bourty of the
Latter day Saints, but at no time in
its history has it owned any real es-
tate, or any personal property, save
sufficient for it's absolute needs each |
succeeding year. The CHURCH on the |

purpose of aiding in the propagation |
of the Gospel of our Savior |

The oyster supply

Mr.. Black ford, of the New York State
fishery commission. reports that there is \
noticeable decrease in the supply of oys
tiers from New York waters This he at.
tributes to excessive dredging and to the
dumping of city garbage upon the oyster
beds. The water is So polluted from this
course as to be unf for oyster propagation.
One fact is stated by Commissioner Black
ford which is instructive and shou 4 be i
guiding one in considering the oys'eT in.
terests. He states that in 1860 large
majority OF oysters marketed came from
natural beds, bu, that this is now changed
To-day at least sixty per cent of he oys
ter product Of New York is taken from
planted beds He also states that in Con
necticut and Rhode Island the natural bed.
are for the most part extinct, except 10

is the case with the entire natural be,.s
north of the Chesapeake. This leads TO
the important conclusions:

protect the natural beds of the Ckesapea ke
THIS not by reckless and unscientific iezis

men, but according to some prudent and

do this will IN AXE money Dredgers. tong
ers and men whn make a living from the
waters should 50 far rs practicable be en-
couraged In take an active interest in Ibis
matter. They might organize planting
clubs and thus b I'VE beds of their own from
which to load. Legislation shoul lie So
framed as to increase the oyster supply

Comptroller Turner's Report.

The annual report of Mr.. J. Frank Tur-
ner. comptroller of the State treasury. for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 1885,
makes a satisfactory exhibit of the State
finances. l. shows that notwithstanding
the business depression the State revenue
has about equalled the average during the
past mise years. The estimated balance
for the fiscal year 1897 will, he thinks, he
ample to maintain the sinking funds and
leave enough besides ITO insure the treas
ury officers against embarrassment in pro-
viding the means necessary for an efficient
administration Of the public affairs of our
State" The sinking fund investments
amount to S1,752, 900 IS, and notwith-
standing the heavy drain of legislative ex-
penses and appropriations the sinking
funds have been maintained in their in
tegrity. The disbursements for the oyster
fund amounted to S1O6,60O 60, while the
receipts were $51,O57 "A. The revenue
under the new oyster law, it is stated, will
not be sufficient to maintain the present
service by at least $4,000 y ar The
comptroller expresses the opinion that
after the dredging season is over The board
of public work will devise some plan ''by
which the expenditures of the fiscal year
1887 shall lie kept within the current rev.
enues from this source" The total State
debt is shown to be $40, 96O, 535 Sc, to off
set which are paying securities held by
the State amounting to $4,946,375 SO and
which the comptroller says would yield,
if sold, handsome premium-a million
and q quarter of dollars being, 10 his
opinion, not too large an estimate. De-
Quoting them at their face value the net
debt would be $6,O14,159 So. The comp
troller speaks with satisfaction of the sue
cess of the scheme for refunding maturing
obligations at lower rate Of interest,
which, when consummated, is expected to
save in interest over $4,000 per annum,
and makes the gratifying statement that
the States credit has been benefited and
its securities placed 'among those which
are most sought for" The total reduc
ton of the debt in the past three years is
stated to he 81 ,271 OBJ 80, or an average
of $423,910 So year. To extinguish the
debt tax of 81 cents the comptroler thinks
it will he necessary only to maintain the
present revenues five years longer, with
the same economy and conservatism on
the part of the Legislature as at the past
two sessions. The comptroller, however,
thinks the debt tax might be reduced
gradually, and that the next Legislature
can probably take off one and one-half
cents. The unremunerative assets amount
to the sum of S28, 1875, 034 06, of which
1925, 81 1868 SO IS on account of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio canal. With reference to
the latter the comptroller expresses the
opinion that 'some'hing heroic must be
done.' He also calls attention to the tax
on the treasury imposed by the tobacco
inspection system, and renews his sugges-
ton that the State treasury be relieved
"from every tax growing out of the in
spection of tobacco Sun.

Der. a startling exhibit of des.ruc ion for
a single twelyemon'a Quite a number
of fires have so far been reported during
the present year, but none of them have
been of serious proportions, and it is to
be hoped that the record Tor 1887 may lie
more encouraging than that for 1886
Most fires have their origin IN the failure
to take proper precautions to protect pro,
perty from this d anger. During holiday
seasons people are apt to be careless and
to suspend the vigilance which is neces-
sary to safety: and in intensely cold wea-
ther, such as the present, the desire to
keep warm frequently leads to the build
ing of fires that prove too hot for worn out
stoves or imperfect heating apparatus. A
little extra care and attention in proper
season would save millions of dollars OF
property and hundreds of lives.

The accommodation of the knights OF
labor in Canada by the Catholic Cardinal
of that country, and the suspension of the
Catholic priest in New York for his afilia-
ton with the knights there, show plainly
enough the course the Catholic Church
will pursue toward that organization.
And such course is in accordance with
the precepts of the churh. One of the
chiefcharacteristics of the Catholic Church
is its eminent conservatism. 1t stands by
the injunction of its founder, to render
unto Caesar the things that are Caesars
And it has good reason to be conservative,
for in every rising against the existing
order of things it is the first object of at
tack, as in the case of the murder of the
Archbishop of Scotland during the revo-
luton in that country, and of the murder
of the Archbishop of Paris during the
Commune. The Church is always the first
and chief sufferer in all such agitations,
and therefore from policy as we'll as prin-
ciple it is only natural that it should not
favor them.

Commissioner of Pensions Black
has done wonderful thing, and a ter
ribly wicked thing, according to some
Of the Washington correspondents.
A Smart Aleck clerk in the Pension
Department concluded to have some
fun at the expense Of an applicant for
pension, and wrote a decidedly hu-
morous reply to his application. This
smartness came to the knowledge Of
Gen. Black, and he promptly ordered
the dismissal of the clerk. The latter
complained to the Commissioner that
he had been ordered by his chief to
write the funny letter, when Gen.
Black ordered the dismissal of both
of them. It was in vain that they
cried out that it was only "a harmless
joke" Gen. Black decided that he
did not want any harmless jokes by
smart clerks at the expense Of the old
soldiers. For this action Gen. Black
is entitled to the esteem of every old
soldier in the land.

Feeding Bees in MAY.

Large quantities of brood are reared
this month, and after the red buds of
the soft maple have put forth their
heads there will be plenty of natural
pollen for the bees to gather If there
are no naples or willows in your i'm
mediate vicinity, take some unbolted
rye-four, mix it with saw-dust or cut
straw, and set in sunny corner, shell
tered from the wind, when, if the bees
require it, they will carry it freely. In
localities where there is honey in the
blossoms at this season. the bees will
gather it very rapidly, and the more
honey they get the faster the stock
increases. Where there are not
enough honey-produclng flowers, by
all means feed, at the entrance, say
about gill of hot feed every night.
By feeding thus, your stocks will in
crease very rapidly, and when the
honey commences to flow, you will
have strong stocks to increase very
rapidly, and when the honey COM
mences to flow, you will have strong
stocks to gather it. Again, should
there be honey in the blossoms, and
cold and rainy weather set in, feed as
above, for should the weather con-
tinue cold, the bees would naturally
commence to destroy the work already
accomplished, by tearing out and de-
stroying the Matching brood. If you
keep your bees for increase alone, feed
them every night, and continue to do
so until honey can be gathered in
abundance.-American Agricwlturist

The death of Lieut.. John W. Dan
enhower suggests forcibly the folly of
Arctic expeditions in general. Out of
a crew Of strong, healthy men who
sailed in the Jeanette, but one officer,
Engineer Melville, now remains. The
terrible sufferings Of the officers and
men Of course can never be known or
understood. Lieut.. Delong perished
amid the snow and ice, with several Of
his men. Lieut.. Danenhower's mind
became unsettled as a result of his
terrible suffering, and his death by his
own hand was the result. What has
been gained, as return for all this
sacrifice? We know about as much
now, concerning "the open polar sea"
as we did before the Jeanette sailed.
Starvation, and suffering, and death,
have been about the only results of
this Arctic expedition. Yet we shall
expect to hear of men who will be
anxious to go aud do likewise.

earth road, twenty horses; on sand
road, forty horses.
Good roads not only save horsefesh,
but vehicles. Take what are ordin-
arily called good roads" and bad
roads," and a vehicle used on the
first only will last twice as long, at
least, as one used on the latter only.
No one can doubt that country roads
would be fifty per cent. better than
they now are, if the labor and money
put upon them are properly applied.
How to have that work and money
properly applied is the the matter to
be discussed now, and the best meth
DDS may be ready for adoption when
the season for road-making comes.
Whether or not the road-bed should
be surface-drained, or underdrained
with tile, or by putting in a corduroy
founda ion; whether or not gravel or
plank should be used; how best to use
gravel, or plank, or tile-these are
points to be decided before spring
The farmers club should also discuss
specifically the repair of each high
way in the neighborhood. This will
lead, among other things, to an un-
derstanding whether or not it will be
proper to shorten highway by
Strengthening it; whether a road that
now goes around hill should be car
ried over it by grading down the hill,
or whether making road longer by
carrying it around a hill will be COM
pensated for by the less grade; how
to keep weeds from growing in the
highways, to seed the adjacent land,
and many other points which, thus
being settled, would greatly add to
the improvement Of eroads.-Amer-
ican Agr'iculturist.
